Metalware often sees the use of metals such as brass, iron, copper, silver and alloys like bronze, bell metal and white metal. Our product is made from brass fused with stainless steel and bears matt finishing. Brass, a metal alloy of zinc and copper, is also commonly spotted in Indian kitchens in the form of utensils and serveware, owing to its natural properties and their corresponding health benefits. The process of creating a piece of metalware can take up to four to six weeks, involving a production cycle that includes processes such as melting, casting, joining, scraping, engraving and polishing. Uttar Pradesh is India’s largest copper-making region, and its city of Moradabad, where this product is made, is famously recognised as Peetal Nagri (Brass City) and is arguably the biggest centre of metalware production in India.
